Chapter 91: 91
ā€œI say! The Governor of Paradise, McFah Circassia, has crossed the state border and invaded! Thirty thousand soldiers are reported! It looks like he’s currently lightly dropping Menfa in Lund County and marching to Lund Castle! \n
Alcantes Castle, during the debate.
The report jumped in during the military debate.
Basamark overhears the report and slightly changes that look, which he doesn’t usually change.
Thomas Granzion of Bassamark’s belly, General Leamas Ivas and others, sitting at a round table in the middle of the debate, Bassamark ministers all had a look of surprise when they heard the report.
ā€œIs that true?
Ask the soldier Bassamark has reported. \nā€œYes… apparently McFah is marching here to the goal of Arcantes… somehow making Lord Basamark the enemy of His Majesty the Emperor and marching to discuss itā€¦ā€
ā€œI am the enemy of His Majesty the Emperor… or, well, not a mistakeā€¦ā€
As Bassamark shrugged, yet another soldier rushed in during the debate.
ā€œWe will report!! Clan has invaded Alphada County from Sempler! The number of soldiers is more than 50,000! We have already dropped our post without difficulty and marched to Clampress Castle in Alfada!
I hear that report. It quiets down during the debate.
Everyone on the spot realized that this was a hell of a thing. \nā€œLooks like Clan and McFah have formed an alliance… what a troublesome situationā€
Leamas shrugged, frowning.
ā€œNot if you’re saying it long. What’s going on in the state of Saitz?
Thomas asked Bassamark.
ā€œContact from Saitz has been discontinued since the disturbance. We can no longer count on reinforcements.ā€
ā€œThat’s what I’m gonna do… At a time like this, you can’t count on them.ā€
\nDifferent opinions are expressed as to what to do about the current situation, which cannot be described as a very good situation, but there is no proposal that can be described as effective.
ā€œAfter all, in a situation inferior to the number of soldiers, it seems like you have no other hands than to manage to defend Belzdā€
That’s how Leamas squeals.
ā€œā€¦ Thomas. The Lord goes all the way to Belzd and joins the command. Disadvantaged, but let it hold in the hand of the Lord. If we buy time, we will soon be able to stop the commotion in Saitz, and we will have a chance.ā€
ā€œOkay. ā€˜Cause I’m gonna bark at the clan guy.ā€
Basamark then wrote a letter addressed to the Beltzd County Governor, which he had Thomas take with him, and Thomas left for Beltzd.
